METHODS OF IDENTIFYING, SELECTING, AND PRODUCING ANTHRACNOSE STALK ROT RESISTANT CROPS

摘要

The field is related to plant breeding and methods of identifying and selecting plants with resistance to anthracnose stalk rot. Provided are methods to identify novel genes that encode proteins providing plant resistance to anthracnose stalk rot and uses thereof. These disease resistant genes are useful in the production of resistant plants through breeding, transgenic modification, or genome editing.
